Battery drain suspected on your car ?
Battery drain suspected on your car ? Its a frequent occurance for us to be called out to a car that has a battery drain. Many times the customer has either taken the car elsewhere already and is still experiencing problems or replaced the battery or alternator and still getting a flat battery.

Oil Change & Servicing – AMC Car Repairs
Oil Change & Servicing – AMC Car Repairs Whilst we specialise in Auto Electrics & Diagnostics over the past 6 months or so, we have come across many vehicles that have not had an oil change & servicing carried out for some time. All too often we hear the phrase ” its only just had an MOT Test”. We then have to advise them that, whats checked at an MOT Test is different to having a service. An MOT Test is inspecting it at that moment in time, a week later something could fail as a general wear and tear item, I won’t get into what is and isnt included in an MOT as that isnt the point of this post. Since covid, the number of people getting their vehicles serviced at regular intervals has dropped. People are now using … Continue reading
